This entry "http://oracvalues.com/spices-cinnamon-ground" doesn't indicate whether it is referring to common store bought cinnamon (cassia) or true cinnamon (ceylon) and I was just curious about it. This link provides more info on the differences - <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.slashfood.com/2008/11/25/cinnamon-is-it-ceylon-or-cassia/">http://www.slashfood.com/2008/11/25/cin ... or-cassia/</a><!-- m -->


Thanks!!

My guess is that they are referring to cassia. Many of the items in the USDA 2007 study were commonly available store-bought products.
